Connecting Undergraduate/Analytical Courses to Modern Analytical Chemistry

以项目形式的应用模块和主动学习技术，为化学测量原理提供坚实的基础，并激发化学专业和非专业学生的兴趣，将在介绍性分析课程中使用。这些模块将解决从当前生物、环境或材料科学研究中得出的分析问题。学生将负责提出和评估分析方案以解决问题：他们将组织研讨会并设计自己的实验室实验。一个多学科咨询委员会将在问题选择和模块开发方面指导pi。为期两周的教员讲习班将提供使用这些模块的培训。万维网主页将用于发布有关这些模块的信息，并允许用户分享使用这些模块的经验。模块最终将由商业发布者发布。

Application modules in the form of projects and active learning techniques to provide a strong foundation in the principles of chemical measurement and to pique the interest of both chemistry majors and non-majors will be developed for use in introductory analytical courses. The modules will address an analytical problem drawn from current research in biological, environmental or materials science. Students will be responsible for proposing and evaluating analytical protocols to solve the problems: they will conduct workshops and design their own laboratory experiments. A multidisciplinary Advisory Council will guide the PIs in problem selection and module development. A two-week faculty workshop will provide training in the use of these modules. A World Wide Web home page will be used to distribute information about the modules and will allow users to share experiences using them. Modules will ultimately be distributed by a commercial publisher.
